From Mayor To Senator

John Fetterman: A Rising Star in American Politics

From Mayor to Senator

John Fetterman, a Democrat, was elected to the US Senate in 2022, representing Pennsylvania. His political journey began 20 years ago when he arrived in Braddock to run a GED program. He then served as mayor for 13 years, working tirelessly to revitalize the struggling steel town.

A Year of Triumph and Challenge

Fetterman's rise to the Senate was marked by a rollercoaster of events. In January, he was sworn into office despite having suffered a stroke several months earlier. The stroke temporarily affected his speech and processing skills, but he quickly began working on recovery.

Fighting for the Forgotten

Throughout his career, Fetterman has been a vocal advocate for Pennsylvania's underserved communities. He has prioritized issues such as affordable healthcare, economic development, and criminal justice reform. As a US Senator, he continues to fight for the people he represents, working to ensure that their voices are heard in Washington, D.C.
